The case studies in this Volume 2 book support the premise that organizational policies are what ensure institutionalization and sustainability of futures thinking in corporations, non-profits, and educational institutions. Futures thinking here reflects a systems approach utilized by organizational leaders to observe and interpret signals of change or disruption, identify trigger points of impact, employ foresight methodologies to build scenarios of the future and plan action, and then ultimately translate/actualize the most viable scenarios into successful business outcomes. What is new in the field of futures thinking today is not the general source of change (i.e., technology, globalization, and workforce well-being), but the tumultuous level of disruption occurring due to three phenomena-explosive use of social media, shift in great wealth, and government instability. Scholars and practitioners alike will find the case studies in this book provide nuanced insights into such disruptions, as well as discussion of best practices to ensure successful business solutions. Deborah A. Schreiber is Adjunct Professor of Organizational Leadership at the University of Massachusetts Global, USA, and management consultant with RK Futures Incorporated. She has been honored with the Charles A. Wedemeyer Award for Distinguished Scholarship in recognition of her research publications. Zane L. Berge is Professor and Former Director of the Training Systems graduate programs at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County, USA.
